时间用英文怎么表示?超简单!


Okay, let's make showing time in English super simple! It's not as confusing as you might think. There are two main ways: "Digital" (using numbers) and "Word" (using words).

Digital Time: This is the most common way. We use numbers. It has two parts: Hours and Minutes. We usually put a colon (:) between them. For example, "3:15" means three hours and fifteen minutes. If the minutes are 00, we often just say the hours. So, "3:00" is just "Three o'clock" (or "Three zero zero"). To show AM or PM, we write "AM" for times from midnight (12:00) up to, but not including, noon (12:00 PM). We write "PM" for times from noon (12:00 PM) up to, but not including, midnight (12:00 AM). So, "3:15 AM" is "Three fifteen in the morning." And "3:15 PM" is "Three fifteen in the afternoon."

Word Time: This is using words. For times from 1 to 12, we just use the words: one, two, three... twelve. Again, we add the minutes. So, "3:15" can be said as "Three fifteen" or "Three fifteen o'clock." For "3:00", we say "Three o'clock." To show AM or PM, we use "in the morning," "at noon," "in the afternoon," and "at night." So, "3:15 AM" is "Three fifteen in the morning." "3:15 PM" is "Three fifteen in the afternoon." And "3:15" late at night might be "Three fifteen at night."

See? It's really just numbers and words, plus remembering AM (morning) and PM (afternoon/evening). Practice saying them out loud, and it will become second nature!
